There’ll Always Be An England

That headline is the title of a popular song in England just as World War II was breaking out. In later years, it morphed into a catch phrase when anything peculiarly English took place. This is one such instance.

A pub in Newcastle, in the northeast of the country, has come up with something completely different for dogs brought along by their owners: a special non-alcoholic beer made with malt and hops, and including a meat extract.

Thanks to Times Union investigations research director Sarah Hinman Ryan, who also writes a dogs blog, for pointing me in the direction of this story.
